[Intro]
Shadow in the hallway
Smirk under red eyes
Every hero that you pray for
Yeah, I watched them die
[Verse 1]
I am the villain of this story
Ink-black hands, dripping glory
Every crown they tried to hoard
I melt it down, I swing the sword
City on fire like a canvas
Paint with chaos, that’s my standard
You want mercy? That’s your fault
I keep my heart inside a vault
My darkness taking over all my light
Turn my halo to a blade in the night
Nobody left that can fix this state
Snapped that chain, now I amputate
Talk about peace? That’s boring
Destruction is more fun, I’m soaring
Kick down thrones, hear ‘em crack
Laugh while the heroes fall back
[Chorus]
The world will bow to me
On your knees, on your knees, you’ll see
I smile when the angels fall
Watching bodies on the floor, that’s all
The world will bow to me
Say my name like a cursed decree
No more gods, just my reign of war
Watching bodies on the floor
[Verse 2]
Tear out the pages where I was kind
Burn that book, leave embers behind
Every soft word, every second chance
Buried deep where the ghosts all dance
I feed on fear, that’s my dinner
Every loss just made me sicker
You call it evil, I call it fun
You call it night, I call it sun
Eyes like coffins, sleep inside ‘em
Heroes line up, I divide ‘em
Turn your idols into stains
Write my legend in their veins
I lost the light, I let it bleed
Now I’m the monster that you breed
Try to stop me, swing and miss
All your hope tastes sweet like this
[Chorus]
[Chorus]
[Bridge]
I used to pray for a hand to hold
Now I crush those hands into gold
Built my throne from your broken swords
Sit and sip on your last words
You wanted justice, I wanted more
So I found joy on a bloodstained floor
[Chorus]
